After catching four balls for 56 yards and a score in Notre Dame's spring game, head coach Brian Kelly commented that if the season started today, Jones would be a starter at wideout, ESPN.com reports.

Jones began lining up at slot receiver with the first-team offense during spring practice on Monday, furthering the belief that the freshman has a good chance of emerging as a starter in Notre Dame's three-wide receiver offense this fall, ESPN.com reports.
